Full text not available from this repository.This first chapter begins by defining “ecocide”; setting the context for the term’s origin; examining its various applications; and observing (and deploring the fact) that, despite the efforts of certain legal experts, the concept has never found legal acceptance at an international level. The thrust of the chapter consists in an attempt to offer a panorama, by historical and literary periods, of the representation of ecocide in world literature from its origins to the present day. This panorama is made up, on the one hand, of the author’s personal research, and on the other, of the integration of the various reflections proposed in the following chapters by the other contributors to this volume. All the interpretations of these literary texts are based on ecocritical approaches, i.e. approaches that focus on the relationship between man and his environment.
